Euphony and Crash Boom Bang

Oh, what it did not mean anything of this album: Vampire Weekend goes Americana. But who expected now muffled Oktoberfest Banjo Geschrummel a la Mumford & Sons, can breathe. I wonder how the songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Ezra and Rostam their rhythm section Chris Baio and Chris Tomson (drums & bass) and move them to confess, they have back a song in stock, but it's too complicated. And Chris and Chris listen to that and say: No problem. No other band has currently a more complex drum work than this band, if that's already noticed on Contra "is schlackern here with your ears.
The album starts harmlessly with a dreamlike slacker anthem, whose title "Obvious Bicycle" to me not obvious at best will. "Unbelievers" has in the second half of a brass section, but the one uncovered only at the second hearing, "Step" is just the melody, for the one you love this band so. "Diane Young" (Attention, the title is not without a certain humor, friends homophony take note) does not adopt the midsection unwitzig fun of Justin Bieber (Baby!). "Hannah Hunt" is a beautiful "Taxi Cab" moment when you realize that the Vampires more going than those carefree pre-party music, to which one can be so beautiful vorglühen. "Everlasting Arms" is elegant, "fingers Back" will be interesting live (Ezra will have to read the text?) And who can sing along to "Worship You", wins the REM "It's the End of the World" award, it sounds at you and you will know what I mean.
Well, and then there's "Hey Ya" - tip pun on the Outcast hit. Sometimes the band is me then but a mystery. "Diplomat's Son" by Contra could be one of the most perfect songs ever, if he would not be so vergallopieren in all breaks and loops and tempo changes at the end. Something like that I feel with "Ya hey". How do you like the song ever, when the chorus Duffy Duck (or is Axl Rose?) Permanently Ya hey "quacks in between ???" Hudson "is an example of what happens when the band is even older and more profound, not just my cup of tea. "Young Lion" is a first, because this assumes Rostam the lead vocals, hihi.
Yeah, the album is less African and benörgelt of purists once but grows like all Vampires album every time you hear ...
